I like the light, colors, and curving lines, Bill. More dof would work for me, but nicely presented as is.

Lovely lines and tones, Bill, making for a fine abstract. I wonder, like Scott, how it would look if a touch sharper, but I guess you wanted a soft look.

Ian and Scott covered my thoughts. I like the palette. The image, it seems to me needs to be either softer or sharper. :smile:

Bill - Nice curves moving up with 50-50 split between yellows and oranges. Most BES I have seen had deeper shade of orange (almost reddish brown) and this seems to be a new one for me :cool:

Wonderful abstract with delicate lines. Love the colors. Will have to take a closer look at the Black Eyed Susans that have begun blooming in our garden.

Bill:

Looks like the side of a hot air balloon. Interesting with the soft look. :toast:
